Inside Lukka’s AML Risk Report
In blockchain, an address is just the cover of the book. The real story – and the real risk – is in what that address has done, who it’s connected to, and how far those connections reach.
For compliance teams, that story needs to be told clearly, quickly, and in a way that can stand up to scrutiny. That’s exactly what Lukka’s AML Risk Report delivers: a defensible, at-a-glance risk snapshot built from over 380 verified risk indicators and transaction tracing up to 400 hops deep.
It’s not just a spreadsheet of transactions. It’s a risk narrative you can act on.
From Chaos to Clarity
On-chain activity is noisy. Traditional blockchain analytics can drown compliance officers in raw data, leaving them to piece together risk by hand. Lukka flips that process:
- One Score, Total Picture: A highly sensitive algorithm, recognized as one of the most advanced in the AML space, calculates risk with precision by analyzing exposure to sanctions, predicate crimes, darknet markets, mixers, risky VASPs, and behavioral anomalies. All of this is distilled into a single, easy-to-understand number: the C-Score (0–99).
- Proximity-Based Intelligence: Our tracing engine goes beyond direct links. It alerts you when illicit funds reach an address indirectly through other wallets, tracking the full flow of funds up to 400 hops away. This reveals hidden exposure that simpler tools simply can’t detect.
- Context That Matters: Understand the bigger picture with owner profiles, jurisdictional risk, token and NFT holdings, and behavioral patterns over time.
- Audit-Ready Evidence: Every report can be exported as a PDF or API JSON response and securely stored, making it simple to retrieve and reference during audits – providing clear support for your AML decisions.
The Journey Through Risk: From First Glimpse to Full Picture
Different teams have different needs, and we meet them all. The AML Risk Report comes in three formats, each tailored by depth, data detail, and processing speed – from quick screenings to full investigative packages – giving every team exactly the insight they need to identify risk quickly, investigate thoroughly, and take defensible action.
- Scoring Report: Fast, API-Driven First Screening
Start here. Our API delivers full risk data in a fraction of a second, making it perfect for first-pass screenings. It’s designed to support the decision-making engines of even the largest organizations, providing instant, actionable insight that easily integrates into compliance workflows. - Standard Report: Quick, Insightful Review
The Standard AML Risk Report adds financial summaries and top risk factors, letting teams assess exposure at a glance. Ideal for mid-tier reviews and internal case checks, it gives more context without the depth of a full investigation. - Enhanced Report: The Full Investigative Toolkit
For high-risk addresses or suspicious findings, the Enhanced AML Report provides the complete picture every compliance officer loves: all triggered risk indicators, token and NFT holdings, darknet exposure, complete C-Score logic, and proximity-based risk paths up to 400 hops. Perfect for deep investigations, audits, or documenting defensible decisions.
With this three-tiered approach, teams can start fast, dig deeper when necessary, and always have a clear, actionable understanding of risk – all from a single, integrated platform.
Turning Data Into Decisions
The AML Risk Report is designed for real-world compliance use cases, helping teams act quickly and confidently.
1. Onboarding / KYT – Instant, Automated Screening
Screen addresses in seconds, without manual tracing. By integrating our API directly into your application, you get automatic, real-time screening from the moment an address enters your workflow – no extra steps, no delays.
2. Investigations – Clear Visibility on Exposure
Distinguish incidental exposure from active participation in illicit networks. Compliance teams rely on tools they actually love to use, giving them precise, actionable visibility into risk, so every decision is fully informed and defensible.
3. Audit Defense – Ready-to-Show Reports
Hand over reports that regulators can follow with confidence. Each report is saved in PDF or API JSON response format, making it easy to retrieve and reference, and providing transparent documentation that supports your AML decisions without requiring extra explanation.
4. Policy Alignment – Map Risk to Your Standards
Our algorithm calculates risk from start to finish, translating complex blockchain exposure into clear, interpretable scores. These can be directly mapped to your internal Low/Medium/High thresholds, giving a complete overview of compliance posture and ensuring your policy enforcement is consistent, measurable, and auditable.
Why This Matters Now
The crypto ecosystem moves fast – but so do regulators, and the expectation for defensible AML decisions is only rising. Having real-time, explainable, and verifiable risk analysis isn’t a luxury; it’s a survival tool.
Lukka’s AML Risk Report gives you the “so what” behind every address, making it easier to act with confidence – and prove you were right. In compliance, speed without clarity is reckless. Clarity without speed is useless. The AML Risk Report delivers both, distilling blockchain complexity into decisions you can stand behind.
